Rosh Chodesh Tammuz

We welcome the new moon, and with it, the new month of Tammuz. In the hebrew calendar, Tammuz is a month of intensity, of fire. And yet, the month is connected to the sense of "sight", seeing deeply, seeing beneath the superficial, and seeing the good.

The piercing gaze or the soft gaze - which do you choose in this moment? In this months Yoga Asana practice, we heal our sight through a warming postural flow. Jenna @breathandsoul_jenna, weaves Jewish wisdom with Yogic practice, reminding us that "We do not see objects the way they are, but rather the way we are. When we change ourselves, we change the way we view things" - Rav Pinson.

The heated summer month is assocaited with an energy of destruction, of fire. There's a collective rage -that often fuels us - which we tend to. While last years Tammus Yoga focused on working through sadness and difficulty, this years we explore sight. What does it mean to see the good, in an intense world?
